What would be the best way to create a (relatively) portable serial
communications library?  By portable, I mean that I'd like it to run on
DOS and Linux with as little modification as possible.  I'm not really
looking for anything fancy either, just a 2k buffer, if possible.  Right
now I've written a low-level serial port class wrapper, but there's no way
that I'll be able to get that to Linux, from what I can tell.

Any suggestions?
